I moved from the NHS to education a few months ago.

Is there anything similar to NHS discounts for education staff?

No, sadly not.

My City Council do have a 'Rewards Scheme' at quite a few places in the City, (generally, discounts), but they only apply in our home City.
If you do hear of a scheme though, do come back and tell us Grin

CSSC open to all education staff- discounts on English heritage, sports activities and other things.

CSSC can be worth joining. As well as the discounts mentioned above you get a free taste card and money off gym membership. It's worth having a browse on their website as it's not immediately clear how much you get for your money.

A friend sent me this yesterday

Not looked at it yet in depth yet but from what I've seen so far looks ok.

I've used discountsforteachers a few times and I'm an EYP. Some of the TA at work use it too so not exclusively for teachers. I've used it for discount airport parking and money off insurance.

@DinkyDaisy As far as I'm aware it's for anybody who works in education. The person that sent me a link is a TA.

I had a look on discountsforteachers but I'm not sure what to tick as therapist. Is it ok to tick TA? Do you need to prove your job role?

Sometimes you do, for instance I get a discount on my phone contract because the council I work for have a contract with them or something, it’s worth asking (Vodafone) Applies to NHS & various companies too I think.

Theatre near me sometimes has a 2 for 1 offer on certain shows for teachers, NHS etc.

Union recently started a discount scheme too.

Are you a member of a union? NUT (no longer but can’t remember new acronym) do discounts.

Thanks for this thread. I've just tried to sign up for the discounts for teachers cash back card but it keeps telling me my email isn't a work one (it is)!

My favourite on Discounts for Teachers - 25% off Eurocamp, but after the end of August, the discount goes up to 40%. Thanks for that!!

Uni lectures can get an NUS (now TOTUM) card using their ac.uk email. Then you get all the student discounts.
